    The part about it being unforgivable sounds extreme. How can there be “consequences” for simply temporarily opting out of a chat app?

    Losing touch with friends for a while definitely sucks but if you need a break from literally an app then real friends will accept that.

      I left way more than once, so leaving several times and expecting people to accept you again and again sounds like a chore and not everyone is going to keep accepting you.

        I don’t know, I have a discord friend who leaves every once in awhile, and it’s just their thing, and we welcome her back with open arms every time. No big deal, leave when you need to and come back when you’re ready :)

        I don’t think other people see it that way. It’s very common for people on discord to disappear for days/months then pop back in.

          Yeah I suppose thats true, I was very much in a different mental state when I left, so much so I deleted my account, one person I was good friends with checked in with my phone number and made sure I was okay. I only wanted to share my experience because some others viewing might be in a similar state I was in, terrified of technology and *almost left it all behind. I have very good people though and I couldnt be more thankful. :)
